shannon-ob 25th November 2010 22:49

Oh my god man! she certainly hit you hard :/ hope you're okay. Luckly it wasn't fatal injuries! R.I.P saxo...

Lippy 25th November 2010 22:50

shame it doesnt come out of her pocket, just comes out of the big car insurance payments bank account.
For injuries like this you deserve some compensation! and I hope her insurance goes through the roof next year!

beaniehat 25th November 2010 23:01

CHIP 27th November 2010 22:20

Shit the bed, that's nasty. It's annoying that the paper doesn't mention who was in the wrong... i know they can't like but with picture's of your car people will just go 'ooh, chavved up Saxo, bet he was racing'. Not to say it's chavved up, but you know the usual thoughts from people.

Glad you're recovering pal :y:

benJee_VTR 29th March 2011 21:11

Right havent been on for a while, Little update on my progress atm. The claim is still ongoing, my knee and ankle is more or less back to normal and im currently 3 sesions into my 2nd course of physio. Ive had medical evaluations, mountains of paperwork and im still none the wiser of how much or when i get a payout..but im in no rush tbh, it takes as long as it takes.

I believe the woman was charged with dangerous driving but unfortunately had the option of taking points and a fine, or a driving course :/

When i got back driving, i wanted to get straight back into it, so bought this and stuck some borbets on it :)




But have now declared it off the road and is for sale.

Still keen on the TT although an S3 keeps coming into the picture! Miss my old vtr like mad though...would definitely get another saxo (after driving a megane 1.9 and 2.0TD astra for the last few months) Maybe when i sell the TT/S3 for drinking petrol!

sn3ddon 29th March 2011 23:23

im glad your okay mate my claim is bieng processed as we speak ;)

j05h_54xo 11th July 2011 17:05

the two tone looked lush but that white one is gawjuss!

benJee_VTR 11th July 2011 21:26

Cheers mate! Looks a Little different now.. its off the road whilst i bring it up to scratch :)


Lacey_106 11th July 2011 21:36

WOW...

What can you say to that?! That woman is a cunt. I hope she's getting the book thrown at her?

White sax looks nice though!

j05h_54xo 13th July 2011 04:04

saxokid100 18th July 2011 02:47

Thanks, the white one is off the road until i get back from Tenerife early Sept but i have lots of plans for it :) Yeah unfortunately the punishment from the Law was a fucking disgrace..think she took a driving course. Dont worry, next time she wants to insure her car there will be a massive payout on her record, but whether that makes her think twice about overtaking blind doing 60+, god knows!

Yeah back to normal now :) i miss the 2tone, i put so much time and effort into it, was heartbreaking seeing it unrecognisable :( But, its only a car i spose. Just lucky im here to buy another one!

benJee_VTR 21st March 2013 11:34

Just as an update for anyone that knows me, I only just settled the claim! Received the cheque yesterday ... only 2 and a half years later! Now got rid of the white saxo, and bought an Audi S3, but will still be on the site now and again :)

Saxdaniel 21st March 2013 13:59

Glad it finally got settled mate. Shame about your old car, looked nice :(
